Integrated Pliocene-Pleistocene magnetostratigraphy and tephrostratigraphy of deep-sea sediments at IODP Site U1424 (Yamato Basin, Japan Sea)
Sediments from the semi-enclosed Japan Sea are sensitive to paleoclimatic perturbations and they offer great opportunities for many regional and global paleoceanographic and paleoclimatic studies. These studies often require a robust chronology. However, due to rare preservation of calcareous microf...

Sediments from the semi-enclosed Japan Sea are sensitive to paleoclimatic perturbations and they offer great opportunities for many regional and global paleoceanographic and paleoclimatic studies. These studies often require a robust chronology. However, due to rare preservation of calcareous microfossils and drastic changes in surface water salinity during glacial lowstands, the construction of a traditional oxygen isotope stratigraphy for Japan Sea sediments is often difficult. Here, we use sediments recovered at Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP) Expedition 346 Site U1424 to build an integrated Pliocene-Pleistocene reference magnetostratigraphy and tephrostratigraphy for sedimentary sequences from the region. Rock magnetic experiments indicate that magnetic remanence of Site U1424 sediments are carried primarily by (titano)magnetite with small contributions from high coercivity minerals (e.g., hematite) and possibly iron sulphides (pyrrhotite and/or greigite). Dark-colored sediments appear to contain less (titano)magnetite probably due to reductive diagenesis under euxinic conditions.
